George Lucas once said, "A movie is never finished. It is only abandoned." So let it be with the Boat and the Bot! I have no excuses for turning out such a weird little thing other than to say I wanted an Ian McQue SciFi boat, but had no plans in creating a coherent diorama. So here we are. A full-sized set of 14 pictures can be found here: www.coldbasementmodels.com/?page_id=334Many thanks to all of those who watched this one clunk along for the last 7 months.       John |

John, what s fantastic build, so many points of interest. Great detail and paintwork. Great job all round, well done mate.
Can I ask, what's the green you used for the deck?
Chris.

John, I absolutely love the depth of your imagination and the level to which you bring it to life in the little details.

Very cool John. Its amazing what can be created when you let your imagination go wild.
The Ian McQue stuff is brilliant. Ive always wanted to build his waldo floating ship.

Very nice but you should leave raw meat in the sun.

I don't remember exactly the color. But it was an off-the-shelf selection from Vellejo. The variations in the green were done simply through adding black or yellow. |
